    I love these sony headphones. I do notice that they get my hears pretty warm and sore if you wear them for a prolonged amount of time. My advice is if you are looking for headphones that creates a great seal and you aren't planning on wearing them for a long period of time, get these. I used them on a flight from detroit to tampa and I didnt keep them on the entire time because of ear fatigue. Also the touch controls arent the best

    Best headphones on the market in this price range. I also own Beats Studio Pros 3 and Bose QuietComfort 35ii. The noise cancellation is spectacular. The sound is very good as well. I also like that they give you the ability to modify the sound through their app. I got these when they were on sale for 249. Well worth the price.

    I got these because I was able to try them from a family member and loved the bass range and 360 aduio features. I had the beats solo pro at the time and had forgotten that the beats are virtually industructable compared to these. The beats had nothing to compare when it came to sound quality and bass but at least they were full metal and not plastic.

    Since I haven't gotten a pair of great headphones for 15 years, it was time to update my Bose. With every intention of getting another Bose I fell in love with the Sony. Comfortable to wear, easy to hard wire to your phone or i-pod or i-pad or to set it up wireless. Love the wireless and blue tooth capabilities. Sales rep was very helpful in getting me set up.

    My personal best headphones yet. Ive purchased quiet a few over the years and this has to be the best use of my money. The noise cancelation is top notch. Ive been to airports and busy areas and find myself engulfed in my music. Also with the built-in app eq you can make adjustments to your sounds for a deeper and richer experience.

    These are easily the best headphones I have ever owned. My only regret is that I did not buy them sooner. I love the noise cancellation and the touch controls on the right ear. The speak feature that lowers the volume and turns off ANC for a period of time is awesome, but it is not for me. If I respond and just say yea to someone it activates. Great feature, just not for me.

    I wanted to go for the best bluetooth headphones on the market and I am very happy with the purchase. My wife works from home and she needed headphones that can help her focus on her work. She consistently raves about not hearing me while I move around the house. If I try to call her name with her headphones on she has to take them off because she can't hear me.

    Great sound, incredible noise cancelling, good optimization when wearing glasses under headphones. Only gripe is that my ears, which are small, are a bit cramped and sometimes touch the headphones, which can start to hurt. I also don't like the way the headband is a bit raised, not the most fashionable.
